I'll give that a try. So kind of treat it like noodles?

wrecked 2 rice cookers already

Thanks guys. All great suggestions. I made an appointment with a trainer to go over what you all said and come up with a better plan that will fit my schedule. Everybody gets UPVOTES!!!!!!

quality over quantity. A good slow swim you can maintain for 20-30 minutes is better than trying to sprint out a swim and burning out after 5 mins because it was too strenuous.

Toby's Tofu Pate(tastes like egg salad). Very low calorie and put on soft white bread. One of the things I ate when on a soft foods diet. https://www.tobysfamilyfoods.com/tobys-tofu

Look up Laetrile. That whole story should you very wary about products like the one you used.

Sweet, and good job. I lost 120 or so, but I am still going to do bariatric surgery.

I was just asking my people the same thing. I also have to wait 6 months. I am so nervous and scared I'd like to do it tomorrow, but I have to wait til June. I have never heard of anyone getting out of the waiting period.

tried to like these, rinsed them boiled them everything. Can't get past the consistency and smell. I been doing spaghetti squash for my pasta sauces.

OK maybe I am being to hasty and impatient. It's just I am down enough where clothes in my size are ACTUALLY in MY SIZE!!! If you know what I am saying? So it all about looks right now and maybe that's superficial and wrong but damn I am getting compliments and when I am at the gym people want my advice. I think about this…

Thanks everyone... 1. yes male. So aesthetics mostly. 2. there is a lot of information here that just a few of you provided I got some digging and research to do. Love this community for its honesty, and user experience.

Are any of those exampled bottled tea(s)? I myself have always recorded my home made sun-tea just bags and water like you as zero calories. Sometimes bottled tea from the store has something added that has calories even tiny amounts. Other than that I got nada.

BBQ Brisket, mac and cheese, fried chicken.

Wool finger-less gloves. Wear them almost 24/7 nowadays.…

I don't measure old go to recipes that I have made the same way for over a year. I make some standard recipes that are always the same so they don't get recorded, but every new mix, recipe, combination, or dining experience gets weighed measured and recorded.

1. 2 eggs / 1 serving of Birdseye breakfast blend / coffee with 1 oz cream / English muffin dry. About 400 calories. 2. Oatmeal(raisins/brown sugar), banana, coffee w/cream. 300-ish calories 3. Breakfast sandwich consisting of 1 english muffin / .5oz shredded cheese / 1 fried egg and vegetarian(Morningstar farms) breakfast…

I don't have a friends list. I am only speaking for myself when i say I believe you have to do most of this journey on your own. Lean on yourself and your knowledge/experiences. Take any positive feedback and use it as a motivator.

Lonely Obese guy I get it. I started this at 493 and lost 93 lbs so far. I understand completely my last date was years ago. It would have been very easy to just throw in the towel, but here is the thing. We crave that attention we don't want to be lonely. I used that idea to help motivate me. Look I know that basically…

This person probably believes against vaccinating their children as well. Gym is full of people with good intentions that are just plain wrong. That's why headphones on, do my workout, and go home.

Chopped vegetables called "Healthy 8". Some of that stuff, left over chicken, trader Joe's Greek yogurt and some spices you got a great chicken salad for lunch.

Very cool. It wasn't until I found a good mental health practitioner that things really started to go well for me. I am glad for you not only have you found success, but you are owning your struggle. I think all this is very cool. OMG what a great smile you have(watched the video).

I am only doing this(losing weight) to make other people happy. I'd much rather eat myself into a coma.

Looks fantastic, but at 13 dollars(I would get the large portions) it is 2 times my daily food budget for one meal. I could maybe eat there one time a month.

I had this issue in my forearm and couldn't close my right hand all the way. Doctor said it was from fat loss and was temporary went away after a month. and even though I have continued to lose weight has not been issue since.

Thank you all for the replies. Very helpful!

I am not quite as crowded with my time but maybe I can help with dinner. I go to and get pre-cut stir fry vegetables(best ones are at Trader Joe's) and cheap sirloin steaks. I cut the steaks into strips and freeze 6oz portions. I take a portion out before I leave home, and when I get home its fire up the wok. Make myself…

BBQ ribs

weigh weigh weigh. Its the only way. :p

I will say that the recipe sounds good, but dang why so much? I am a big eater and my smoothie is only a yogurt, one banana, pbfit, whey protein. It comes to around 350-400 calories depending on the yogurt and the weight of the fruit. It fills me up quite nicely and makes a great post workout meal. Whenever I buy bananas i…
